SENIOR T-BALL DIVISION
A Note From Your Senior T-Ball Convener
This is the second level of baseball, with more instruction regarding the rules of the game “i.e., outs”. The focus remains on having FUN while learning the basics: throwing, catching, fielding, hitting & team play. Softer baseballs and regulation aluminum bats are used. The field is set up with three bases on a smaller baseball field (60ft between bases) with a Tee for players to hit off.
Space is limited so please register early!

ENCOURAGE NEW FRIENDSHIPS – Play-With Policy Reminder
At RYBL, one of our goals is to help kids grow both on and off the field—and that includes making new friends! While we understand that many players want to be on a team with someone they already know, we encourage families to view this season as a great opportunity for their player to meet new teammates and build new friendships.
As a reminder, per the RYBL Play-With Policy, only reciprocal play-with requests will be considered. This means that if your player would like to play with another child, both players must select each other on their registration forms.
Multiple requests and non-reciprocal requests will not be accepted. Requests received after April 1 will not be accepted.
We appreciate your understanding and support in helping us build balanced teams and a fun, welcoming environment for everyone.
Thank you for your interest in RYBL.
Please reach out if you have any questions.
